The first section of the bibliography lists four indexes to autobiographies and biographies of noted psychologists. The next section focuses on autobiographical references and includes references and/or annotations for both monograph- and book-length autobiographies. This section is followed by a section on biographical references. Included are sources for biographical sketches (1-2 paragraphs in length) of psychologists, as well as references and/or annotations for both monograph- and book-length biographies.

Students can use these resources to prepare class presentations and historical research projects. Students have commented on how interesting history can be when they get to know the historical figures in a personal way. The sources identified in this guide are not exclusive. They constitute those references I have located in and ordered for the university's library. I got the idea of submitting this list to ERIC/CAS after a colleague asked for suggestions to order for his college's library. His response to my list was so favorable I concluded that others might find the list as useful. Two features of this listing should prove helpful to teachers, scholars, and students of the history of psychology. I have annotated many of the references. In addition, I have listed the names of the psychologists contained within most of the books. Such infonnation should facilitate retrieval 4 1 Indexes to Autobiographies and Biographies Benjamin, L.

  • The Hiring of James Mark Baldwin and James Gibson Hume at Toronto in 1889
    History of Psychology Copyright 2004 by the Educational Publishing Foundation 2004, Vol. 7, No. 2, 130–153 1093-4510/04/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/1093-4510.7.2.130 THE HIRING OF JAMES MARK BALDWIN AND JAMES GIBSON HUME AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO IN 1889 Christopher D. Green York University In 1889, George Paxton Young, the University of Toronto’s philosophy professor, passed away suddenly while in the midst of a public debate over the merits of hiring Canadians in preference to American and British applicants for faculty positions. As a result, the process of replacing Young turned into a continuation of that argument, becoming quite vociferous and involving the popular press and the Ontario gov- ernment. This article examines the intellectual, political, and personal dynamics at work in the battle over Young’s replacement and its eventual resolution. The outcome would have an impact on both the Canadian intellectual scene and the development of experimental psychology in North America. In 1889 the University of Toronto was looking to hire a new professor of philosophy. The normally straightforward process of making a university appoint- ment, however, rapidly descended into an unseemly public battle involving not just university administrators, but also the highest levels of the Ontario govern- ment, the popular press, and the population of the city at large. The debate was not pitched solely, or even primarily, at the level of intellectual issues, but became intertwined with contentious popular questions of nationalism, religion, and the proper place of science in public education. The impact of the choice ultimately made would reverberate not only through the university and through Canada’s broader educational establishment for decades to come but, because it involved James Mark Baldwin—a man in the process of becoming one of the most prominent figures in the study of the mind—it also rippled through the nascent discipline of experimental psychology, just then gathering steam in the United States of America.

He called for a scientific psychology, but he viewed psychology as ancillary to philosophy. He was a grandson of Jesse Ladd and Ruby Brewster, who were among the original pioneers in Madison, Lake County, Ohio. Ruby was a granddaughter of Oliver Brewster and Martha Wadsworth Brewster, a poet and writer, and one of the earliest American female literary figures. Ladd’s main interest was in writing Elements of Physiological Psychology (1887), the first handbook of its kind in English. Because of its emphasis on neurophysiology, it long remained a standard work. In addition, Ladd’s Psychology, Descriptive and Explanatory (1894) is important as a theoretical system of functional psychology, considering the human being as an organism with a mind purposefully solving problems and adapting to its environment. He early gave indications of the studious habits that characterized him through life.

  • O ENCONTRO DE PIAGET COM O TESTE DE INTELIGÊNCIA DE CYRIL BURT: UMA REVISÃO NARRATIVA Piaget Meeting with Cyril Burt's Intel
    André Elias Morelli Ribeiro, Leonardo Lemos de Souza DOI: https://doi.org/10.23925/2175-3520.2020i51 p11-21 O ENCONTRO DE PIAGET COM O TESTE DE INTELIGÊNCIA DE CYRIL BURT: UMA REVISÃO NARRATIVA André Elias Morelli Ribeiro1; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1102-2286 Leonardo Lemos de Souza2; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3331-1847 Resumo O presente estudo tem por objetivo principal desenvolver uma narrativa que mostre a influência do teste de inteligência de Cyril Burt na criação do método clínico de Jean Piaget, auxiliando na composição de conhecimentos deste assunto pouco estudado. Piaget estudou em Neuchâtel, Zurique e Paris antes de integrar o Instituto Jean-Jacques Rousseau em Genebra, no qual lançou seus primeiros livros, que o levaram a lugar de destaque na psicologia mundial. O presente trabalho faz uma comparação entre os dados disponíveis na literatura para recompor essa trajetória até o ponto decisivo de mudança no trabalho experimental de Piaget, que aconteceu em Paris, onde estudou o teste de inteligência de Cyril Burt. Conhecer os elementos da criação do Método Clínico é importante para compreender os fundamentos ontológicos e epistemológicos dos dados gerados por ele e suas consequências teóricas. Do contato com esse teste, Piaget sofreu três impactos determinantes para sua vida e obra. A primeira está ligada à tradução do teste, que ressaltou questões sobre parte/todo na linguagem das crianças. O segundo é a possibilidade de Piaget de observar dezenas de amostras do raciocínio explicado das crianças por elas mesmas, o que permitiu o ingresso das técnicas de observação da zoologia em sua psicologia.

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1956 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. CARL EMIL SEASHORE 1866-1949 BY WALTER R. MILES ARL EMIL SEASHORE, after receiving his professional education at C Yale, went to Iowa as a well-recommended, wise young man from the East. He remained at Iowa for a half-century, during most of which he was known as "The Dean." Renowned for his work in psychology, musicology, the science of human development, and uni- versity administration, he played a leading role in the scientific and cultural program of his university, state, and nation. His influence in developing applied psychology in relation to higher education and the professions has been world-wide. In 1908, while continuing as professor of psychology and chair- man of his department, Dr. Seashore was made Dean of the Gradu- ate College of the State University of Iowa. This position he occupied with distinction for twenty-eight years, until at the age of seventy he was retired. He was recalled as Dean pro tempore of the Gradu- ate School in 1942, served throughout the war years, and was finally retired in 1946. The occasion of the second retirement of such a dis- tinguished scholar and educational administrator was so noteworthy in the annals of the Iowa State Board of Education that an excep- tion was made to the Board's rule against indulging in commenda- tory resolutions.

  • Personal Politics: the Rise of Personality Traits in The
    PERSONAL POLITICS: THE RISE OF PERSONALITY TRAITS IN THE CENTURY OF EUGENICS AND PSYCHOANALYSIS IAN J. DAVIDSON A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN PSYCHOLOGY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO AUGUST 2020 © IAN J. DAVIDSON, 2020 ii Abstract This dissertation documents personality psychology’s development alongside psychoanalysis and eugenics, offering a disciplinary and cultural history of personality across the twentieth century. Using the psychological concepts of neurosis and introversion as an organizational framework, personality’s history is portrayed as one of “success:” a succession of hereditarianism and its politics of normativity; a successful demarcation of the science of personality from competing forms of expertise; and a successful cleansing of personality psychology’s interchanges with unethical researchers and research. Chapter 1 provides background for the dissertation, especially focusing on turn-of-the- century developments in the nascent fields of American psychology and the importation of psychoanalytic ideas. It ends with a look at Francis Galton’s eugenicist and statistical contributions that carved a key path for psychological testers to discipline psychoanalytic concepts. Part I details the rise of personality testing in the USA during the interwar years, while also considering the many sexual and gender norms at play. Chapter 2 tracks the varied places in the 1920s that personality tests were developed: from wartime military camps to university laboratories to the offices of corporate advertisers. Chapter 3 takes stock of popular psychoanalytic notions of personality alongside the further psychometric development of personality testing. These developments occurred at a time when American eugenicists— including psychologists—were transitioning to a “positive” form that emphasized marriage and mothering.

  • Psychology of the Scientist: Xliv. Sir Cyril Burt: Prominence Versus Personality
    Psychological Reports, 1980, 46, 893-894. @ Psychological Reports 1980 PSYCHOLOGY OF THE SCIENTIST: XLIV. SIR CYRIL BURT: PROMINENCE VERSUS PERSONALITY H. J. EYSENCK Institute of Psychiatry, University of London Summary.-Prominent professors occasionally have defects of personality which cause them to behave towards their students in wavs which are unethical and unacceptable scientifically. This short autobiographical piece recounts some such behaviours experienced by the author at the hands of Sir Cyril Burt, at the time probably the most prominent British psychologist. As I have described elsewhere, I came into psychology pretty much against my will, my preference having been for the study of physics and astronomy (Eysenck, 1980). I was lucky in that I studied under Charles Spearman and Cyril Burt; the former had just retired and the latter had not yet been knighted. Both were exponents of the psychometric point of view, stressing statistical analysis and mathematical models, and these appealed to me very much, as being in line with my general scientific upbringing. Burt was one of the foremost exponents of this line of research and has made outstand- ing contributions in the fields of factor analysis, genetical analysis, and psychometrics generally.
